The limitations of social interaction befallen upon Anne, before and during her captivity, leave Anne with many questions regarding the different feelings and sensations that she experiences despite her need to justify them in her diary. She is unaware of how to classify or even react to the growing sexual awareness that was inevitable. Her hormones dictate some of her writing in this part of the novel and she is struggling to validate how she feels emotionally and socially. Sexual awareness for a girl, even in the most "normal" of circumstances, is difficult to deal with. Anne has to deal with her "growing up" with a perspective skewed by captivity.
